fast forward to the supreme court june ruling on the healthcare law. the first thing the court did was say that that old law this the 1800s did not block the case. it went of course onto update the original mandate. because it removed that old law, that barrier that liberty university faced at the lower court the university immediately asked for a new chance. the university says it still wants to argue over issues the court did not decide in june, namely the employer mandate. by asking the government to weigh in today the supreme court is signaling its open to allowing liberty to restart its legal challenge, it would first go back to the fourth circuit but the very next stop would be, once again the supreme court. gregg: we could have part two coming up. >> round two, we're ready. gregg: i know you are. shannon bream. thanks very much. live in washington. jenna: an update on a very important story we told you about last week. fears of a world-wide bacon shortage. gregg: say it isn't so. jenna: well the warnings echoed across grocery store isles last we
